October 6, 2006|By Brian Schmitz, Sentinel Staff Writer

THURSDAY: In their lone practice, the Magic worked on defensive situations and held a controlled scrimmage, playing it without rookie J.J. Redick (torn tissue on bottom of left foot) and veteran Tony Battie (sore right knee). Redick likely won't play in Saturday night's intrasquad game. Former NBA ref Don Vaden, a supervisor of officials, briefed the players on rule changes, including crackdowns on complaints about calls.

TODAY: The Magic will work more on defense, particularly their on-ball defense, and hold a controlled scrimmage.
